Thanks for identifying that wasp Simone, only one of them comes visiting. I feel sorry for all the insects labelled 'common'.

I wasn't being critical - wasp shots are great. I only got my first shots of Pintail/tumbler beetles a few months ago. Completely new family of beetles for me. Very exciting. They are very small (~5mm), energetic and strange looking beetles. Have a look at e.g. Mordella sydneyana

Gasteruption sp. (genus)
